DOVER, JAN. 3, 1826.—Prince METTErttqlcu, jun. arrived here this day. lie had n most bole, terous passage from Calais, and though the night was excessively cold, he set out with all possible haste for London. 'We are further informed that Prince ESTERUAZY'S presence at our Court can not be dispensed with, and that his establish. ittent at Paris will be transferred to Chandos- In our preceding columns will be found, a copy of the PRESIDENT'S Message to the Congress of the United , States. A more than ordinary degree of interest has beet) felt for the arrival of this an- uual communication, from its being the inaugnrat jug address of Mr. QUINCY ADAMS, of whose views end opinions, it will be taken as u political barometer. The most prominent feature in the Message is, the spirit of cordiality manifested to wards the new Republics of ci-devant Spanish Arne- TiCa. Amongst the documents to be laid before Con 'grass is, the Treaty of Commerce and Navigation with Columbia, which is noticed as the precursor of similar treaties" with all the independent South American States." The basis on which the United States propose to found an union of com merical interests may, in truth, be considered as tantamount, on this head, to .a federative com pact, being 64 laid in two principles—the one of " entire and unqualified reciprocity—the other, " the runt ial obligation of the parties to place each 44 other, peimanently,on the footing of the most fa " Toured nations," If these principles 'be adhered to, in the spirit of good faith with which we roust assume them to be laid down, the American 4 4 Hemisphere" will be effectively delivered from the 64 thraldom of colonizing monopo ¶' lies and exclusions." In connection with the subject of the New Republics, the Con gress about to assemble at Panama is spe cially noticed. To that assemblage, the United Slates have been invited to send Ilepresen tatives—the invitation has been accepted, and . Ministers will be commissioned to attend the deliberations of , this Meeting, so interesting .to the future tranquillity and welfare of that he ynisphere. In the financial statement, we have a strkking illustration of the prosperous condi tion of the United States. The revenue of th e present year, will exceed the anticipations 0 1 the last—and the principal of the public debt 1 " been decreased by eight millions, paid off. The entire expences of the Government of the United States is Stated to have twun only seven minibus of dollars—and the w 66 amount of public de ht reinniniug due on the 66 Ist of January (1826) iII hi. short of Eighty 44 one Millions of Dollars"—an amount scarcely exceeding one-half of the annual interest on the funded and unfunded Df!ht of Great. Britain! Paris Papers of Monday evening received this day, contain Forne eery interesting intellig,nce, and from them we make the following extracts : The French Funds have risen, at three o'clock on Monday they were as follows : For the end of the month, Five per Cents., 96. 75. ; Three per Cents., 66. 10. On the 0111 of December the' fatal news of Cie death of the Emperor at half-past nine of the morning of the Ist of Decem ber, was known at St. Petersburgh. Immediately the members of the Imperial Family, and the Council of the Empire and of Ministers, assembled at the Palace, and the Grand Duke Nicholas first took the oath of allegiance to the Emperor Con stantine, and after him all the Officers of State present. The Senate then published the following Ukase : In a general assembly of the Senate, of the department of St. Petereburgh, the Prince Denitzji I wanowitsch Lobanow 805... toweki, Minister of Justice and Gen. of Infantry, communicated the melancholy news that his majesty, the Emperor Alexander, acording to the will of the most high, terminated his mortal career on the Ist Dec. at Taganrog, in consequence of a violent disease. The Senate, after having taken the oath ofallegiance to the legiti mate heir of the Throne, his Imperial Majesty our Sovereign Em peror Constantine, has ordained—let, To make known this event by printed Ukases-2d, To send to all the Military and Civil Authorities the form of the oath which they are to take as the faithful objects of his Imperial Majesty, and to in struct them by Ukas:s to tender the same to all the faith ful subjects of his Majesty, whatsoever their rank, except the peasants of the crown and the serfs, and to send the same signed to the Senate. 3d, That the Ukase be distributed by the messengers of the Senate, and that the same be reported to hie Majesty. Soon after the death of the Emperor, the Empress Elizabeth wrote a ietter to the Empress mother, Winch we make the following extract : " Our Angel has thus surrendered his soul to his creator. 1 have nothing left on earth, but, previously to following him, to deposit his remains in the tombs of his fathers." ZANTE, Dv:c..4. Tbe Ottoman fleet has sailed, and on the 23d of November, having arrived off Cape Papa, It mit the Greek fleet, com posed of 34 vessels, under the command of Admiral 3liaulie, but the distance, the calm, and the night, prevented any engagement. The Greeks, however, made an attempt to fire the fleet by means of two fire-ships, which were unsuccessful. After this rencounter the Turkish fleet disposed itself in line, between Cape Paha and Missolonghi, and the Greeks steered for the isles of Curazolari, at some distance from the Turks. Ibrahim Pacha has entered Gastoni, and laid it waste. He is, it is said, to be constituted Commander-in-Chief of the Turkish sea and land forces, and h, is now at Patras, and about to direct the operations against that place. On the 11 of this month, Admiral Neale, Commander-in-Chief of the naval forces of hts Britannic Majesty in the Mediterranean, arrived nt Corfu with a vessel of 80 guns and two frigates, coming from Malta, and having on board his Excellency Mr. Stratford Can ning, Ambassador to Constantinople. PARIS, 2. According to the latest news from St. Petersburgh, the Grand Duke Miami arrived at that capita on the 17th of De cember, and Constantine has been proclaimed at Moscow and St. Petersburgh. If we are to believe the reportsicurrent in the Salons:of St. Petersbuigh, the renunciation of the kapperor Con !dentine in favour of his brother, the Grand Duke Nicholas will not be conditional, as has beat supposed. How can we suppose that Princes, .who give so splendid an example of self-denial, could consent to the dismemberment of the Empire. Letters from Motion, dated 14th of November, say that— " Ibrahim will set out tomorrow with his new trOops. of 8,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry, for Missolonghi ' and the Turkish fleet will, at the same time, sail for the same destination." Letters from Madrid and the South of Spain have raised the question, how_the Spanish Government will deal with the crew of the Soublette, which surrendered to the Spaniards, in con. sequence of the eficts of the storm lately experienced at Gibraltar. This crew consists for the most part of Englishmen and Americans, and a decree of the King issued some time since inflicts die penalty of death on all foreigners aiding the South American rebellion, and has been transmitted to. the respective Governments for their consideration. The -flogrian' Observer of the 22d and 2311' .December received this day, brings us the official intelligence of the death of the Emperor A t.Ex- AND'Ea, Plitt the taking of the oath of allegiance to the new Emperor CONsTANTINE the. First. There is nothing in these Papers either to con firm or to destroy ,the report of the abdication of the new Emperor, or which at all throws any additional light on the immediate cause of the sudden demise of ALEXANOVIt. We repeat, however, our decided conviction, that illness, whatsoever might be its nature, and however rapid 118 effects, brought him to the grave.—The fol lowing are extracts:— VIENNA, DEC. 21, NINE P. M. Just as we were going to press, official news of the death of the Emperor Alexander Ims been received by an Express from St. Petersburgh, which left that capital on the 9th, on which day the news of this melancholy event had been received in the capital, and the oath of allegiance immediately taken by the Guards and Civil Authorities to the heir of the throne, the Em. peror Constantine the First. VIENNA, DEC. 22. The Austrian Observer gives the particulars of the accounts brought by the Express that arrived on the 21st from St. Pe tersburgh. The Emperor had felt indisposed at llakstschisara, in the Crimea, but continued his journey back to Taganrog, partly on horseback, where he arrived on the 18th, with some degree of fever. Ile wrote on the same day to his mother, the Empress Maria, that he was unwell, but that he took care of himself, end that the indisposition would be of little conse quence. The remaining particulars coincide with those already published. •' In consequence of the official confirmation of the melan choly news of the death of his late Majesty, Alexander 1., Em peror of Russia, his Majesty has been pleased to order a Court of Mourning of five weeks, from to-day, the 22d December, 1825, toithe 25th anuary, 1826, inclusive."--tilustriun 'Ob server, 22d and 23d Ike.) The Allrremeine Zeitung of the 27th December reached us this day, it has nothing except the following paragraph at all worthy of notice:— FROM THE FRONTIERS mr"PoLAxn, DEC. 15. Private letters from Warsaw give the following particulars of the death of thd Emperor Alexander, the correctness of which we will by no means warrant. The Emperor appears to have taken cold in his journey through the (Milieu, where he tra velled long distances on horseback on the sea coast; fever en sued, and he returned ill to Taganrog, where he grew worse.— Suddenly the wound in his foot, which had been hitherto open, closed, on which he is said to have exclaimed, " raurai It sort de Ina ,r " and made his last disposition in the presence of Generals Diebitsch and Wolehonsky.—(Allgetneine Zeitung, Dec. 17.)

FRENCII PAPERS. (From the Journal de Paris of Sondes% Jan. 1. ) VticarNA, Dim. 20. (FROM A PRIVATE r.rTirrn.) Letters have been received from 'Constantinople; the moat interesting news they contain is,' that pretty warm disp u t es have lately taken place between the lleia Effendi and the tish Charge d'Affaires, relative to the affairs of the Pelopon. nexus. On the other hand, the Porte has received information that the Capitan Pacha, as soon as he learnt that the Week fleet under Miaulis had appeared near Missolonglii, hastened to leave the coast to avoid the battle which seemed to be imminent. 1 his news has greatly displeased the Sultan, and it was gene. ' rally believed that the Capitan Paella would be disgraced.. Great activity prevails in the office for Foreign Affairs. The diplomatic correspendence with London, Berlin, and Warsaw, is very frequent, if we may jtitig,.e by the numerous Cabinet Messengers dispatched to those capitals. There is areport here of the speedy arrival at Warsaw of a person of distinction, said to have been invited by the new Em peror of Russia. This, however, is but a report, which, like many others, has been in circulation at Vienna for some days past, and which are, doubtless, much exaggerated, for which reason we refrain from repeating them. (Frani the Journal des Debars.) ODESSA, DSC. 12. The evening ~before yesterday our Governor announced the death of the Emperor.

Ilrhen Prince Metternich in formed him of it, he was sensibly affected, and exclaimed " I have lost my best friend." The whole Imperial Family, and the Queen of Bavaria, with the Princesses her daughters, are immersed in grief. FUANICPORT, DEC. 27.

Sir Murray Maxwell, anti Captain Brown, of the British fri gates Brighton and Tartar, went from Chorillos to Callao at the solicitation, it wan said, of the Peruvian Government, to ofibr to'the Spanish Governor a safe escort on board of and passage to Europe in the Tartar frigate, with all his suite, anti a gua rantee that the garrison should be allowed the same terms as were stipulated in the capitulation by General Canterac, at Ayacucho. General Radii, however, refused any mediation, and intl. mated to the British Commanders that it was his intention to. hold as long as had a shot to tire. There was every ap pearance of plenty in the Castle, even to fresh stock and ve getables. A constant fire was kept up between the Castle and the entrenchments of the Patriots. The frigate United States, COTO. Hull, was lying in Chore los ; officers and crew all well. The Dolphin, G apt.

DrturtY-LeNe.—The Opera of The Siege of Belgrade, last night, introduced Mr. SINCLAIR for the first time at this Theatre in the part of The Seraskier. It was not to be doubted that a vocal performer of his eminence would do justice to the airs, but it may be justly observed that he has not overlooked acting, in characters in which his musical powers are chiefly demanded. Ile was well received, and much applauded through. out. Miss STEPHENS, deservedly a favourite with the public, on account of the propriety of her conduct, as well as for her high musical talents, gave spirit to the part of and sung with her usual sweetness. The rest of the characters ha►e so often been performed by nearly the same ac tors as not to require any comment. It is suffi cient, therefore, to say that those characters were in general well essigned,and that the Opera alto. gether went off to the satisfaction of a very nu• merous audience. COVENT-GA RDlClV.—Thelively Comedy, or p. tiler expanded Farce, of A Bold Slrokefot a Witt, gave Mr. C. KEMBLE an opportunity of addinr‘to is comic laurelshy his first nppParance last night in the part of Colonel Feignwell. It would be difficult to say in w hich of the various assumptions of the character he appeared to most advantage. But the versatility of the character was so well *hewn in the Colonel, the affected Beau, the Traveller, the Dutchman, the Quaker, and more particularly the old Steward, ns to excite a be. lief that, though he never before performed the part in London, it was familiar to him in provin cial exertions. The rest of the characters were well distributed and well supported, as we Lardly need add, when we state that Miss CIIESTEtt was Ann Lovely, and lovely indeed she appeared in the simple garb of the Rim's, fully illustrating the words of the Poet, viz. 46 Loveliness needs not the foreign aid of ornament, &c.;" that FAWCETT Was Obadiah Prim, BLANCHARD Mode: love, and FARREN Perrircinkle. The Comedy is so broad, and the fable so improbable, that it may be questioned whether it would be success. ful if first produded in the present age of fasti dious refinement; but as it has, in some degree, the stamp of antiquity, and affords good scope for variety of acting, it is likely to stand itt ground with the DRAMA itself in this Country The House was full and the applause abundant. Yesterday afternoon, at three o'clock, a Cabi net Council was held at the Foreign-office, in Downing-street, which sat in close deliberation till a quarter before five o'clock. There were present the Earl of Liverpool, Mr. Peel, Mr. Cunning, Lord Bexley, Ste. The Lord Chancel lor was prevented from attending by indisposition, having been confined to his house for several days past. The Earl. of Liverpool and Mr. Se cretary Canning rode to London on horseback from the Noble Earl's seat at. Coombe Wood, Surrey, yesterday morning, and arrived in town about two o'clock to attend the Council at three. At the breaking up of the Cabinet Council, the Earl of Liverpool left town on his return to Coombe Wood. Mr. Secretary Peel arrived in town on Monday night from Brighton to attend the Cabinet Council yesterday. Last night Lieutenant LAING, of his, Majesty's 76th Regiment, arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, bearing dispatches for Mr. CAN.. linkto, from Mr. WARD at Mexico, to the 14th of October. These dispatches were forwarded to the British Consulate at New York, on the 7th ult. by his Majesty's sloop of war Pylades, Captain which left Vera Cruz on the 23d of October, at which time the Castle of San Juan de Ulloa still held out.
